Free Wine, Chocolate, and Books in New York City Boutique Hotels through July

HKHotels, the boutique hotel group which has earned a unique distinction for having its four New York City properties rank in the top four slots on TripAdvisor at one time, is celebrating a company name change to Library Hotel Collection and the launch of four new hotel websites by giving a free “Welcome to LHC package,” a trio of amenities to consumers who book a room through the new websites by July 31, 2012.  The company will also make a $1 donation to The Center for Fiction's Books NYC Schools/KidsRead program which provides books to schools and students in low-income areas in NYC, for every free “Welcome to LHC package” reserved through the new websites during this promotional period at all four hotels.

Consumers who make a booking at the Library Hotel, Hotel Giraffe, Hotel Elysée, or Casablanca Hotel by July 31, 2012 for a stay at any time in the future, will have the ability to select a complimentary "Welcome to LHC Package" that includes a box of Belgian chocolates, a bottle of Cabernet Sauvignon, and, in homage to the new company name, a book to take home.  Guests will have the choice of four classic novels such as "The Complete Sherlock Homes Volume 1," "The Count of Monte Cristo," "Pride and Prejudice," and "This Side of Paradise." Consumers must select the "Free Welcome to LHC Package" on the "Welcome Amenities" page (which shows up after they have selected their dates of stay and room rate) in order to receive this free gift upon their arrival.

Casablanca Hotel, now ranked as #1 on TripAdvisor, is situated at Broadway on West 43rd Street, and offers an oasis of serenity just steps from Times Square.

Library Hotel, currently ranked #2 on TripAdvisor, is located at Madison and East 41st Street and features 6,000 books, organized throughout the hotel based on the Dewey Decimal System.

Hotel Elysée, currently ranked #4 on TripAdvisor, is at Madison and East 54th Street, features the romantic ambiance of a private country inn and is consistently acclaimed as one of the city's most beloved hotels. 

Hotel Giraffe, currently ranked #8 on TripAdvisor, is situated at Park Avenue South and East 26th Street, and offers an urban oasis of sophisticated style in New York City.

In addition to generous yet unpretentious service, what sets each of these hotels in the Library Hotel Collection apart from most properties in New York City, are the value-added amenities that are hallmarks of the company.  These include private club rooms with books, newspapers, magazines, free Wi-Fi, and computer stations; complimentary refreshments throughout the day including Continental breakfast each morning and wine and cheese receptions evenings from 5 to 8 p.m., complimentary bottles of water in the room, and many other thoughtful touches.
